God knows I never wanted anything more than what you offered in the first place, it wasn't first base it was my understanding it was intimacy and attraction, the satisfaction of lying next to you when you're next to me Make a strong case for waking up lonely in the afternoon there's more than heartache to make you threadbare your time is coming soon from the minute you were born you're a slave made to die you're the smallest speck of nothing and the apple of my eye and when I say I can see you, I really mean I'm seeing me all my fear an anger, and all of my grief God knows I never wanted anything more than what you offered in the first place, it wasn't first base it was my understanding it was intimacy and attraction, the satisfaction of lying next to you when you're next to me Hey, you're good damage, walk through the cracks of your history hey, you're last chance to fill up with gold I call you kintsugi Hey, you're good damage God knows I never wanted anything more than what you offered in the first place, it wasn't first base it was my understanding it was intimacy and attraction, the satisfaction God knows I never wanted anything more than what you offered in the first place, it wasn't first base it was my understanding it was intimacy and attraction, the satisfaction of lying next to you when you're next to me Hey, you're good damage, walk through the cracks of your history Hey, you're last chance to fill up with gold I call you Kintsugi Hey, you're good damage of lying next to you when you're next to me

Pretend 02:46
I pretend you could be, you pretend you would be, I pretend that you could be around I pretend you could be, you pretend you should be, I pretend you should be around at all You can be suspicious, but don't forget the dish is far from over and far from cut out You can tie the stitches on lower city bridges try to make the best of it and work it out I pretend you could be, you pretend you would be, I pretend that you could be around I pretend you could be, you pretend you should be, I pretend you should be around at all You can be suspicious but don't forget the dish it far from over and far from cut out Don't you know the truth is all about the bruises? You can hide your face or we could blur it out I pretend you could be, you pretend you would be, I pretend that you could be around I pretend you could be, you pretend you should be, I pretend you should be around at all

Well I could lie and say you never were a thing you said, but it takes a lion's share to make a martyr share your bed. I think it takes a lot tot write down all the things you said, I'm better off just sleeping, I can read them when I'm dead You never wanted me You never want to see the things that you could be Well you could fill a book with all the dreams inside your head and it makes a lot of sense that you're in love with him instead. And I think it takes a lot to keep a calm and level head, because I just fall apart when you're not lying in my bed I never wanted this It takes a million hits and I just fall to bits I know you can't stop you're making waves, it takes a lot to give your all and give your everything you break, you shake, you're taking skin and names I know you can't stop you're making waves, it takes a lot to give your all and give your everything you break, you shake, you're taking skin and names I'm breaking skin and playing games We never wanted this It takes a single hit and I just fall to bits I know you can't stop you're making waves, it takes a lot to give your all and give your everything you break, you shake, you're taking skin and names I know you can't stop you're making waves, it takes a lot to give your all and give your everything you break, you shake, you're taking skin and names I'm breaking skin and playing games

Night Life 02:38
Your mother's eyes were red with tears she never cried My baby blue eyes only see the truth in your lies My mother's eyes were only red with tears she cried, I lie awake and lie to you all of the time, I can't relate I run into the woods, you know I see the moonlight in your eyes I'm not afraid of us, but it's me that's terrified of your eyes

I don't think I'm gonna be sad today I'm sure I'll be just fine. You know that I prefer the solitude and I would never lie to you Please wait, my bad, I'm breaking promises I never even knew we had Don't go, please stay, I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you never go away I don't think I'm gonna be sad today You know I'm gonna be just fine. You know I got that stoic kind of mind that's hard to find and you know that I'm too afraid to die Please wait, my bad, I'm breaking promises I never even knew we had Don't go, please stay, I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you never go away Please wait, my bad, I'm breaking promises I never even knew we had Don't go, please stay, I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you never go away Please wait Please stay I'll do whatever it takes just please say you'll never go away

All Hands 03:53
There is a light that I find behind your eyes and in your spine and there far beneath reading right between the rocks and the hard lines is you, because you're in my head and I can't get you out you know I swear I've tried a million times before and a million times again but heaven knows I'll try So here's to you! I confess, I'm a mess, and I'd give my all to rectify my uselessness, I'm on deck to do my best to forsake and make the best of it There deep inside I think I could learn to live without you in my life But God be damned with me, I would carve your name into my heart and never sleep Or let you rest in peace. So here's to you! I confess, I'm a mess, and I'd give my all to rectify my uselessness, I'm on deck to do my best to forsake and make the best of it I'm on deck, we're all hands and no plans and we're the best of it I'm on deck, we're all hands and no plans and we'll make the best of it

I wanna live out in the desert in a hut. I think it would be good for my spirituality. Because I heard LSD and memories and copious amounts of obscurity could lead you to the end of the world Well I wish for nothing more than the end of the world, and I want nothing more than the end of me I wanna live out in the desert in a hut. I think it would be good for my spirituality. Because I wanna be the kind of cowboy who can live out in the Gobi, and smoke a hundred packs a day and never cough. I think it's just the kind of wisdom I need to knock my block off and give me the peace I need to sleep Well I wish for nothing more than a hundred packs of cigarettes, and I want nothing more than to try and get some sleep I wanna live out in the desert in a hut I think it would be good for my spirituality, but I don't give a damn about the spirit and I don't believe in me, and Heaven knows, I couldn't stand the heat. I wanna live out in the desert in a hut I think it would be good for my spirituality, but I don't give a damn about the spirit and I don't believe in me, and Heaven knows, I couldn't stand the heat. Because I wanna be the kind of cowboy that my Grandpa saw in me and write a million little stories for my Grandmother to read but I can't self motivate, and navigate all the roads I need to succeed and Heaven knows, I don't believe in me Heaven knows, I don't believe in me Heaven knows, I don't believe in me Heaven knows, I don't believe in me

Cap'n'Crunch 04:00
Captain Trevor Morgan was the finest sailor I met and he turned his eyes up to the sky and covered his face as he wept He said, God knows I could've been a farmer like my father before me and I never would've stepped a foot out of town, I would've better watched my feet and He said, But I'm a man, I'm a man, I am only one man and what's a man to do? If I look like a sinner you can call me a sinner but I sure look a lot like you Father Gregor Martin watched the priory doorstep and he turned his eyes up to the sky and he offered as he wept He said, God knows I could've been a farmer like my father before me and I never would've stepped a foot out of town, I would've better watched my feet and He said, But I'm a man, I'm a man, I am only one man and what's a man to do? If I look like a sinner you can call me a sinner but I sure look a lot like you My old man was the greatest dad and the finest man I've met, I raised my hand up to the sky and he lifted me as he wept, He said, I wanna be a better father than my father before me so I'm never gonna step a foot out of town I'm gonna better watch your feet but I'm a man I'm a man, I am only one man, and what's a man to do? well if I look like a sinner you can call me a sinner but I'll be a better man for you well if I look like a sinner you can call me a sinner but I'll be a better man for you

Miss You 02:49
Hip check yourself in the mirror, don't think twice You just might blink and miss, I never seem to miss You think you taught me how to swim Well I promise you, I still can't swim As much as I would like to learn to swim But I just can't ever seem to win Hip check yourself in the mirror, don't think twice You just might blink and miss, I never seem to miss You think you taught me how to choke Well I promise you all I've ever done is choke You could teach me how to cope Cause I learn best without a rope Hip check yourself in the mirror, don't think twice you just might blink and miss, I never seem to miss Hip check yourself in the mirror, don't think twice you just might blink and miss, I never seem to miss

You know that I can only believe in anything for so long, as guts and drugs and flesh and blood and God knows I believe in Love Well I did, I do, at least I think I do, I miss you Because I think, I sink, I drink but am I drowning I'm falling, though I think I can fly Until the cracks in the ground remind me of the last time I fell and the folks in the streets and in pornography remind me I've got nothing to sell Hey, Hey Don't go that way I suck, I know, you're right you should go, I know you're right I should have known But it's there all the time in the back of my mind, because I'm scared all the time, you should have known! But how could you have known? Hey, Hey I know it feels that way I'll be what you need Even if it kills me I'll do what you need To say you'll never leave Because there just aren't enough apologies, or words enough to say I am sorry Hey, Hey, Hey I know it feels that way Hey, Hey Don't talk that way
